Introducing BC Garn Summer in Kashmir

By Kate Gagnon Osborn on April 28, 2021

We’re lovers of wool and year-round knitters and crocheters, but have a special place in our hearts for quality cellulose based yarns and fibers. (This love was the impetus for our Mojave, and why we’re such fans of BC Garn Alba and Lino!) BC Garn released a brand new yarn this season, Summer in Kashmir,…

We are all-seasons knit (and crochet) wearers, so when we come across timeless, simple summer basics we take note. Today we’re talking about BC Garn Lino and several gorgeous, wearable Eileen Fisher-esque tops that will have you…

BC Garn Bio Balance: Never Say Goodbye to Sweater Weather

By Meghan Babin on April 18, 2019April 22, 2019

It’s spring in the northern hemisphere, and generally that means saying goodbye to sweater weather, regardless if we’re ready for it or not. My personal stock of knitwear consists of simple, everyday knits that are easy to make and wear, and I always miss my comfortable staples during the warmer months. What I need is…

Cast-On-Itis: BC Garn Semilla Melange

By Meghan Babin on February 27, 2019March 6, 2019

Do you suffer from cast-on-itis? It’s a problem I’ve suffered from since the invention of Ravelry. Every day a new, gorgeous, must-start-right-now design popped up on the feed and a fugue state later I was surrounded by fresh pile of yarn and a newly cast on project. This tendency has only gotten worse over the…

BC Garn Lino: The Sleeper Hit of Summer 2018!

By Courtney Kelley on July 6, 2018January 3, 2019

If you are a shop owner, perhaps you can relate to this: Sometimes there is a yarn, and you think to yourself, “This is a fine yarn”. You don’t think much more about it. The yarn is ordered, it arrives, you put it on the shelves and you wait for people to order it and…

BC Garn Tussah Tweed, and a new free pattern!

By Kate Gagnon Osborn on May 25, 2018October 8, 2020

Last week we introduced BC Garn to you, and this week we’d like to go a bit more in depth on one of our favorite BC Garn yarns, Tussah Tweed. Tussah Tweed uses 100% tussah silk, as opposed to mulberry silk which is what is most commonly used in yarns and textiles. Tussah silk comes from a wild…

We are happy to introduce you to a new member of the KW family, BC Garn. You’ve probably noticed the yarns popping up on our blog and social media, and we figured it was time for a formal introduction! BC Garn, a family owned Danish yarn company, was founded in 1972 as Væveværkstedet i Barrit…
